At least ten people have been killed and many more wounded in Saudi Arabia’s latest airstrike on Yemen.

The civilians were killed as Saudi warplanes bombed a residential neighborhood in Yemen’s capital city Sana'a early on Thursday morning.

Saudi jets also attacked a sports stadium and a military barracks in the capital, and some raids were also carried out on civilian targets in the country’s central western Dhamar province and central Ma'rib province.

On Wednesday, a Saudi troop captured by Yemeni forces called on Riyadh to put an end to its deadly onslaught on its southern neighbor, Yemen’s al-Masirah TV reported.

In the footage aired by the Arabic language television channel, a soldier identifying himself as Ibrahim Mohammad Hakami can be seen calling on the kingdom’s armed forces to put down their guns and reject Saudi Arabia’s justification for the war on Yemen.

He then goes on to thank the Yemeni troops who captured him for their humane treatment of prisoners.

On March 26, Saudi Arabia began its aggression against Yemen – without a UN mandate – in a bid to undermine the Houthi Ansarullah movement and restore power to the country's fugitive former president, Abd Rabbuh Mansur Hadi, a staunch ally of Riyadh.

According to the UN, the conflict has so far left about 4,500 people dead and thousands of others wounded. Local Yemeni sources, however, say the fatality figure is much higher; Press TV reported.
